Klaudia is a follower of Iglesia Ni Cristo. Is Andy willing to convert for her?

"Siyempre po noong umpisa ay sinabi ko na sa kanya na ito ang religion ko," related Klaudia. "Hindi magiging tayo kung hindi ka magpapa-convert. So, pumayag po siya. Sa kalagitnaan din po ay huminto siya dahil IT Consultant, so marami din kaming problema't away hanggang sa huminto na siya... Pero pinagsikapan naman niya, so nag-resign po siya sa work para magampanan niya ang pag-convert sa INC."

Going out with Andy has been an enjoyable experience for Klaudia. Joey de Leon commented that her being with him enabled her to go more places.

"Middle East na lang yata ang hindi ko pa napupuntahan," revealed Klaudia. "Europe, America, Australia, Canada, at buong Asia. Pero dahil din naman sa work niya. Every time na may project siya, e, ini-invite niya ako."

RAGS TO RICHES. Butch Francisco said that Klaudia started out so poor that she had to literally live on a highway island back then.

"Siyempre muna, sa province, sa sakahan, tapos dito sa Maynila, e, sa squatter," a teary-eyed Klaudia said. "And then, nakikita na kami sa mga building na ginagawa ng papa ko at sa overpass. Nade-demolish din kami..."

At this point, Klaudia's tears were already noticeable. "Hindi ko pa naman din nakakalimutan ang nakaraan ko..."

Is she helping her parents right now?

"Opo,"she smiled. "Hindi na po sila made-demolish."

MARRIAGE PLANS. Klaudia's going to get married this August 28. Has she made plans for the wedding?

"Travel theme po ang gagawin ko sa reception," revealed Klaudia. "Ang mga ninong siyempre si [former] Mayor [Mel] Mathay. Mga abay ko, e, mga alaga ni Tita A [Cornelia "Angge" Lim]." Then looking at Joey de Leon and Lolit Solis, she smiled and added, "Siyempre kung papayag din po kayo."

Klaudia also called out to Seiko big boss Robbie Tan to be one of the ninongs. "Kanina din po tinext ko si Ara Mina na sana nasa abay ko."

So where would the wedding take place?

"Dito," Klaudia said. "Yung family niya [Andy], uuwi dito. Yung parents niya at kapatid niya. Gusto ko kasi sa Philippines dahil dito ang family ko at friends ko."

For the record, Andy is still single and he has no children. When asked how many kids he and Klaudia would want to have, Klaudia smiled, "Tatlo lang. Lagi kasi akong kinakausap ng mom niya na bigyan ko siya ng apo."
